Is the LVN TEAS test and the RN TEAS test the same?
Yes, it is the same exam.
If I took the TEAS test to enter into an LVN program, does that count as one my TEAS attempt for the COS RN program?
Yes, if a student took the TEAS 7 test it is the same test. College of the Sequoias is no longer accepting TEAS 6 or older versions of the TEAS test.
If I took the TEAS 6 to enter into my LVN program but not the TEAS 7 do I still have two attempts to take the TEAS 7 test and receive a passing score?
Yes, students have two new attempts at TEAS 7.
Is there a recency on prerequisite courses?
College of the Sequoias does not have recency on prerequisite courses.
Do my science prerequisite courses at other institutions articulate with College of the Sequoias science prerequisites?
This depends on when the course was taken, what institution you took the course and if that institution has an articulation agreement with College of the Sequoias.
If I received an F, then a W and on my third attempt of the courses received an “A" in the required English prerequisite am I disqualified from applying to the COS RN Program because I have taken English more than two times?
There is no limit on attempts for English courses. The science prerequisites must be passed on their first two attempts with a “C" or better, and a student combined science GPA must be a 2.5 minimum. W's, NC, NP cunts as attempts for the science prerequisites.
Is a Bachelor's Degree or an Associate's Degree in another concentration from College of the Sequoias enough to assume all General Education requirements are completed?
An Associate's degree does not ensure that College of the Sequoias General Education has been met. A Bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited school will automatically waive some local General Education Requirements, but not COS RN Program requirements. Registered Nursing students must complete the prerequisites including English 1 (or equivalent) and the Board of Registered Nursing requires registered nurses to complete Communication 1, 4 or 8, Psychology 1, Sociology 1 or Anthrophony 10 or Nursing 106.
Does the COS LVN to RN Advanced Placement accept students in both the Fall and Spring semesters? Are the deadlines for the LVN to RN Advanced Placement Application the same as the regular RN application cycle?
Yes, and Yes.
Spring Admission Application Deadline: July 15th (applications available May 1st)
Fall Admission Application Deadline: February 1st (applications available November 1st)
